I bought a Rose Count Solo 3 on sale recently for 800 euro and put on a dropper, pedals and bottle cages for ~200 euro and it has everything I wanted from a mtb. Hydraulic brakes, air fork with remote lock, a 1x narrow-wide chainring and a deraileur with clutch.
I'd say 1000-1400$ gives you a capable hardtail that doesn't feel like you paid too much for something you don't actually need.
Check out manufacturers and retailers, a lot of bikes are on sale right now.
